Ledgefork Campground is a Forest Service campground in the Heber-Kamas Ranger District of the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest in Utah. It sits within the national forest's boundaries, and the nearest town is Kamas, about 12 miles away. The site is a simple base for overnight stays. Amenities include vault toilets, and a fee is charged for use. The campground works well as a starting point for the trails and water nearby. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from the Kamas weather station, about 12 miles away, show July highs around 84°F with lows near 50°F, while winter brings highs in the mid-30s and regular snow days from December through February. That station sits roughly 1,300 feet lower than the campground, so temperatures at the site run cooler. The Smith-Morehouse hike is just 0.6 miles away, and the Shingle Mill Lake Trail is about 1.6 miles off. Beaver Lake, a fishing spot, is roughly 6.5 miles away, and Washington Lake campground is about 8.4 miles away.
